Abstract

This chapter explores the influence of electronic logging devices and their potential impact on the operational processes of commercial trucking transportation. The chapter answers the following question: what impacts will ELD have on the supply chain operations of the commercial transportation industry? The introduction of ELD will change how organizations manage and organize products' transportation, improve their operators' quality of life, and minimize redundant travel. Implementing ELD where no technology was regulated will impact how operational process managers manage equipment and employees. Real-time data will influence truck operators' actions to improve supply chain efficiencies. The chapter overviews the progress and sustainability of the Canadian commercial trucking transportation industry by introducing ELD technology. The industry's ability to manage new technologies will shape its future and continue to supply the market with a reliable and sustainable supply chain.
